How much would you pay for this cake?

I am being asked to bake a baby shower cake but I am not sure what to charge her. She also wanted a dozen sweet empanadas, half strawberry and have blueberry. The empanadas won’t be too difficult, it’s the cake that requires a lot of decoration. She wants a fondant teddy bear on top that I will have to hand craft, along with stars and cloud cutouts. The cost of items and ingredients I’ll need to make the cake totaled to $70-90 depending on what brand I get. How much would you pay for a double tier baby shower cake with a dozen sweet empanadas?

Holy crap.
$90 just for the ingredients???
Well the math is $210 to $300 for the cake alone.

@Dainbramadge @Dainbramadge that does sound insanely expensive for ingredients

@Jenny1234 I mean it is a pretty big deal cake wise so ... maybe...LOL
Yeah that is crazy.
BUT .. I think Betty Crocker is a wonderful cake. LOL
I think the way it's done is the material x 3 should cover your wage to do it plus profit.

@Dainbramadge I agree, you should be close to $200
